One of the two nicest campgrounds on our 3 week trip to Yukon & Alaska

We arrived rather late, but the young lady attending check in was extremely cheery and helpful and set us up in a very nice pull thru, even though we only have a 22' travel trailer. As others have stated, the park is immaculate and all the sites are separated by little hedges. Our stay, short though it was, was very peaceful and pleasant. We entered Cochrane from the south on highway 22 and Google maps routed us through a busy residential area to Bow Rivers Edge Campground. We recommend taking Griffin Rd, just North of Bow River, to get to the campground. Beware of following directions from Google Maps if one is South of the river. Bow Rivers Edge Campground is a surprise treasure in a bustling town. Very much one of the top campgrounds we've visited in both the U.S. and Canada! Will & Alison Palmer, Alaska

There was lots of room for my 30 ft trailer and truck. As each site is vacated, staff are there to rake the gravel and ensure that the site is well prepared for the next occupant.

One of our favourite parks! Always a 5 star experience, even with COVID restrictions. A beautiful walking path and off leash dog park right next door, and the town has lots of unique shops and cafes.

Stayed for 4 nights. Gorgeous, clean park, great location with easy access to any shopping needs. Wi-Fi service very poor, lucky to get a half hour connection once/day, rest of the time it would just cut out. Very nice walking / cycling path adjacent to the park and the Bow River, off-leash dog park for park on town users. Didn't use the washrooms so only gave that a 3. Nice kids playground. Sites are spacious & clean & all have privacy hedges. Would certainly stay here again.

This is a beautiful campsite in a small community near Calgary. We have stayed here a number of times over the past 10 years while visiting family and friends in Calgary. There are not a lot of family facilities, except for a playground that our grandchildren enjoy. The site is very clean and the setting along the Bow River is excellent with lots of pathways to explore. Unlike many campsites the free internet actually works well.

We were needing a quick place to stay a night, empty our waste water tanks and refill with clean water. This campground camp up on our Good Sam app and we are sure glad we found it. Clean, comfortable and quiet. We only stayed one night but will be back for another visit in the future!

The washrooms were rated as 1 as they were closed due to covid 19, the campground is extremely clean and well run from the time you arrive at guest services to the time you leave. Location is excellent for anyone that has a dog as it located next to a off leash park on the river so they can swim. The grounds are well manicured and the campsites are private and large enough to be outside with space to move. Will definitely stay again.

Access to the park is good. The roads are paved all the way. Signage is adequate. The park was easy to find but you do have to drive through the town to get to the park. The park office is at the entrance. Check in parking is well marked. The office doubles as a small convenience store and next door is the laundromat.

The park office is at the entrance. Check in parking is well marked. The office doubles as a small convenience store and next door is the laundromat. We did not check in at the office as all was handled by phone and e-mail. We chose this park to carry out our 14 day Self Isolation period (due to COVID 19) as we had just crossed back into Canada. The park operators did a very good job spacing us away from other guests that were Self Isolating as well. Our site, 82, was easy to find even without directions or a map. It was a pull through that was just long enough for our rig and towed. Service were to the left side. The site was gravel with an area of grass. Of course, during our stay everything was covered with snow. We did not have any immediate neighbors but during the normal season a neighbor would be very near. Amenities were 15/30/50 Amp Power, Water (in season) Sewer Table, Firepit and Wifi. No cable TV but we were able to pick up lots of OTA. Wifi was very strong even though we were far from the office. Other reviews noted that the farther from the office the poorer the signal. We noted a recent installation of Wifi antennas. I doubt if anyone will have problems now. We chose this park because we were allowed book, pay and interact by remote. We were close to shopping and other amenities that we might need for our two week stay. We also knew there was an off leash dog park right beside the park. That gave us the opportunity to walk our dog and get some fresh air for ourselves as well. All in all, this park was near perfect for our isolation stay. We paid $697.30 total for our two weeks. That included the additional charge for the dog ($1.00 per day) reservation charges and taxes. That worked out to $49.80 per day. We would return if in the area again.

Campground well maintained, a little hard to find and tons of home and apt. construction all around the campground so noisy and dusty during day. Even with construction would have given 5 stars but ran into a "shower loonie" situation I'd never heard of or seen before, and definitely not a fan. Seems this campground has pay showers...and for 5 minutes of shower time you put in two Canadian "loonies" (dollar coins).

We have a shower in our motor home but I sometimes like the extra space in a campground shower. This campground charges for showers, yet if I shower in RV at campsite, I'm still using their electricity (heat water) and water, and all I want---not 5 minutes worth. Whether I shower in our RV or in their facility, logic indicates to me the expense is virtually the same for campground, or maybe even less if not in RV. Don't understand the pay "loonie shower" logic other than to rip off campers. Much as I liked the campsite and was willing to overlook all the heavy construction mess, will DEFINITELY not be back to this loonie place... Too bad what I consider to be a poor management decision ruined any future stays by us...

So instead of being able to set up on our site and have our lunch, we had to sit around in a parking spot along with a half a dozen other RVers who arrived before the arbitrary 1 pm. Many parks and RV campgrounds have check in times, but all that I have encountered will let you into your site before check in time if it has been vacated. This RV Campground's RULE isn't very customer friendly. At the very least, their website should say NO EXCEPTIONS before 1 pm. Then I may have made alternate arrangements for my arrival time. I will not come here again and would caution anyone wanting to stay here about this very unaccommodating rule. Otherwise it is a well maintained and very regulated campground.

Bow Riversedge CG was one of the top 5 campgrounds we have ever stayed at, and we have stayed in hundreds of campgrounds around the US and Canada over the past 8 years. The staff is friendly and accommodating, the campsites are clean and poop-free, the grass is cut regularly, a bike path is 50 feet out a closed gate, and the Bow River is 200 feet away. Groceries and all services are nearby. What's not to like???

Excellent & well maintained, tho' WiFi is weak & not to the standard of the Park overall.

Very nice campground. The sites are very close together such that you can hear the neighbours conversations and music and they were not talking or playing their music loudly at all. They do have hedges separating the sites so you can't always see your neighbours.

this is a great park! the sites are a good size with hedges between sites allowing for privacy. the place is well maintained and clean. the one edge of the rv park property is along the bow river - very pretty area (and the area is a pathway for walkers, bikes, and off leash for dogs). can walk to downtown Cochrane from rv park. we loved this place (and so do our dogs :-)

Nice, newer, clean park. Good for big rigs. Plenty of room for our 38 foot with tow. Taller trees on both sides for privacy. Very nice off leash dog area. Nice, clean laundry - pricey ($3 Canadian per load) A bit difficult to find, as it is at the end of a road, behind a sports complex.

5 5 out of 5 stars 10/04/2018

One of the top five campgrounds on our 94 day Alaskan adventure. Excellent facilities, outstanding staff, wonderful walking trail adjoining the RV park, sites were very level, easy pull throughs and more than adequate retail, food, and fuel opportunities. Limited number of 50 Amp sites, so book early if that's important to you. This is one of those RV parks for which reservations are highly recommended, especially since caravans stay here en route to Alaska.

5 5 out of 5 stars 06/19/2018

We always enjoy our stay at this facility. What impresses us most are the well manicured sites, proximity to Bow River and access to Canmore. Our only concern is the $2 charge for showers. We feel when you have already paid for water, you should not pay again for bathroom/shower services.

This is the best run campground at which I have ever stayed. Everything is operational, extremely neat, up-to-date, and exceptionally clean. Abuts the river and great paved trail. These people should teach others how to run a great campground!

Thanks for the great review! We love what we do here and love to make people feel welcome and safe at our campground! Hope to see you again next summer. Lots to do in our backyard of Alberta!

We stayed at BRE several times this past summer, but September was our last stay. We are repeat customers because we thoroughly enjoy our stays here. The sites are landscaped very nicely providing some privacy and all of them have grass and gravel for the RV. They are a little narrow, but still room to move around with slides on both sides of the RV. The location of the fire pits in some of the sites is inconvenient - closer to the road rather than really in your site - but it's a small complaint.... Read More

No major roads around it, so the campground is very quiet in the evening. One of the nicest features is the location to the Bow river and a beautiful walking path and off leash area for dogs. We've walked this path many times and never tire of it. Watching the dogs running and playing on the path is also very entertaining! A huge rec centre is also nearby - easy walk. There is a building with BBQs, tables, chairs and a large grassy area that can be rented for large groups, family reunions, etc. for group gatherings, meals, entertainment, etc. The staff are friendly and professional. The grounds are really well cared for and the washrooms are exceptionally clean. Two thumbs up for this park for sure!

Between the river and the park fence is a paved walking trail and off-leash dog park. Our dog loves the freedom to run, snoop and meet new four-legged friends. There is good access to the river downstream from the RV park. A visit to Cochrane Ranch historic site and to MacKays Ice Cream are recommended if you visit the area.

We just completed a five and a half week, 15 state and 1 province trip. This was by a considerable margin the finest RV park we stayed in. We did not have reason to use the restrooms, but I checked them out and they are immaculate. The property is adjacent to the Bow River and there is a very nice walking/biking trail along the river. We had a full hookup site which had lovely greenery separating it from the next sites.

There was lots of room for my 30 ft trailer and truck. As each site is vacated, staff are there to rake the gravel and ensure that the site is well prepared for the next occupant. Staff are very friendly and pleasant. There is a off leash dog run along the Bow River just out the campground gate. It is approx. 30 minutes to Calgary (along Hwy.1A) We would definitely stay here again when travelling out west again.
